在“比较对象”的下拉菜单中，选择与在“基准季”中所选择的季的视听量进行比较的季。具体而言，可以选择例如在“基准季”中选择的季的上一年度中相同的季即“上一年同季”、在“基准季”中选择的季之前的季即“上一季”。此外，另外，如“2020/04(2020年的4月季)”、“2020/01(2020年的1月季)等那样，能够指定并选择成为比较对象的年度以及季。In the "Compare with" drop-down menu, select the season to compare the viewing volume of the season selected in "Base Season". Specifically, it is possible to select, for example, the same quarter in the previous year as the season selected in the "base season", that is, "the same quarter of the previous year", and the season before the season selected in the "base season", that is, the "previous season". . In addition, as in "2020/04 (April quarter of 2020)", "2020/01 (January quarter of 2020), etc., the year and quarter to be compared can be specified and selected.
如上所述，在步骤S1中，图像生成部14生成这种参数选择画面40，显示控制部25在显示设备3上显示和控制该参数选择画面40。用户对参数选择画面40进行操作，以指定进行分析的季等。As described above, in step S1 , the image generation section 14 generates such a parameter selection screen 40 , and the display control section 25 displays and controls the parameter selection screen 40 on the display device 3 . The user operates the parameter selection screen 40 to designate the season or the like to perform the analysis.
另外，在步骤S1中，也可以显示在上次分析时最终显示的列表画面45，其包含所述参数选择画面40。图8是示出在上次分析时最后显示的列表画面45的一例的图。在这种情况下，存储控制部22在HDD14等存储部中存储和控制在上次分析结束时显示的参数选择画面40。并且，在开始新的分析时，存储控制部22从HDD14中读出包含参数选择画面40的列表画面45。显示控制部25在显示设备3上显示和控制所读出的列表显示画面45。用户对包含在列表画面45中的参数选择画面40进行操作，以指定进行分析的地区、季等。In addition, in step S1, the list screen 45 that was finally displayed at the time of the last analysis including the parameter selection screen 40 may be displayed. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the list screen 45 displayed last in the last analysis. In this case, the storage control unit 22 stores and controls the parameter selection screen 40 displayed at the end of the previous analysis in the storage unit such as the HDD 14 . Then, when starting a new analysis, the storage control unit 22 reads out the list screen 45 including the parameter selection screen 40 from the HDD 14 . The display control section 25 displays and controls the read out list display screen 45 on the display device 3 . The user operates the parameter selection screen 40 included in the list screen 45 to designate a region, season, and the like for analysis.
接着，在步骤S2中，存储控制部22从HDD14读出与基于参数选择画面40指定的进行分析的地区、季等参数对应的视听信息。Next, in step S2 , the storage control unit 22 reads out from the HDD 14 the audiovisual information corresponding to the parameters such as the region and season to be analyzed and specified on the parameter selection screen 40 .
在步骤S3中，存储器控制部22判断是否选择了与基准季进行比较的比较对象。在选择了比较对象的情况下(步骤S3：是)，在步骤S4中，存储控制部22从HDD14中读出所选择的比较对象的视听信息。In step S3, the memory control unit 22 determines whether or not the comparison object to be compared with the reference season is selected. When the comparison object is selected (step S3 : YES), in step S4 , the storage control unit 22 reads out the viewing information of the selected comparison object from the HDD 14 .
接着，在步骤S5中，图像生成部24在相同的时段之间，将基准季的视听信息和比较对象季的视听信息进行比较，以计算它们之间的差值。并且，在步骤S6中，图像生成部24生成列出相同时段之间的差值的“差值表”。Next, in step S5, the image generation unit 24 compares the viewing information of the reference season and the viewing information of the comparison target season between the same time periods, and calculates the difference therebetween. And, in step S6, the image generation part 24 generates a "difference value table" listing the difference values between the same time periods.
此外，图像生成部24在步骤S6中生成“差值图表”，该“差值图表”将相同时段之间的差值中的前几项差值和后几项差值进行了图表化。此外，图像生成部24生成“视听量表”，该“视听量表”示出了被指定为基准季的期间内的一周内各天和时段的视听量。并且，图像生成部24在步骤S6中生成包含“参数选择画面”40、“视听量表”41、“差值表”42、“差值图表”43的列表画面45。显示控制部25在显示设备3上显示和控制该列表画面45。Further, the image generating section 24 generates, in step S6, a "difference value graph" that graphs the first difference values and the last difference values among the differences between the same time periods. In addition, the image generation unit 24 generates a "viewing and listening scale" showing the viewing amount for each day and time slot of the week in the period designated as the reference season. Then, in step S6 , the image generation unit 24 generates a list screen 45 including a “parameter selection screen” 40 , a “audio-visual scale table” 41 , a “difference value table” 42 , and a “difference value table” 43 . The display control section 25 displays and controls the list screen 45 on the display device 3 .
图9是示出列表画面45的一例的图。该图9的例子是从画面的左端到右端，按照“参数选择画面”40、“视听量表”41、“差值表”42以及“差值图表”43的顺序排列并被列表化的列表画面45的例子。FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of the list screen 45 . The example shown in FIG. 9 is a list in which the “parameter selection screen” 40 , the “audio-visual scale” 41 , the “difference value table” 42 , and the “difference value table” 43 are arranged in order from the left end to the right end of the screen. Example of screen 45.
(参数选择画面)(parameter selection screen)
该图9的参数选择画面40的例子是选择“中京”作为地区，指定2020年3月9日(周一)-2020年3月15日(周日)的1周作为期间的例子。此外，图9中的参数选择画面40的例子是指定“CTV广播电视台”作为进行分析的视听频道，并且作为分析对象的用户层即“人群(人口统计)”，指定“全地区”的用户作为分析对象的例子。此外，图9中的参数选择画 面40的例子是指定2020年3月2日(周一)-2020年3月8日(周日)的1周(上一周)作为比较对象的例子。The example of the parameter selection screen 40 shown in FIG. 9 is an example in which "Zhongjing" is selected as the region, and one week from March 9, 2020 (Mon) to March 15, 2020 (Sun) is designated as the period. In addition, in the example of the parameter selection screen 40 in FIG. 9 , “CTV broadcasting station” is designated as the audiovisual channel to be analyzed, and the user layer of the analysis object is “people (demographic)”, and the users of “all regions” are designated as An example of an analysis object. In addition, the example of the parameter selection screen 40 in Fig. 9 is an example in which one week (previous week) from March 2, 2020 (Monday) to March 8, 2020 (Sunday) is designated as a comparison object.
此外，在图9中的例子的情况下，图像生成部24根据视听量或差值，对“视听量表41”、“差值图表43”以及“差值表42”中的一周中各天和时段的各显示栏进行了颜色区分。因此，图像生成部24生成参数选择画面40，该参数选择画面40包含视听量(合计值)的颜色样本和差值(合计值差)的颜色样本。In addition, in the case of the example shown in FIG. 9 , the image generation unit 24 assigns each day of the week to the “viewing level table 41 ”, the “difference value table 43 ”, and the “difference value table 42 ” based on the viewing amount or the difference value. Color-coded for each display column of the time period. Therefore, the image generation unit 24 generates a parameter selection screen 40 including a color sample of the viewing amount (total value) and a color sample of a difference value (total value difference).
具体而言，视听量(合计值)的显示栏中的最小视听量的显示栏是灰色显示栏，最大视听量的显示栏是红色显示栏。因此，视听量(合计值)的颜色样本是从左端到右端按照灰色→紫色→蓝色→绿色→黄色→橙色→红色的顺序变化的渐变显示。此外，在视听量(合计值)的颜色样本的左端附近，显示基准周的最低视听量即“0.00”等数值，在视听量(合计值)的颜色样本的右端附近，显示基准周的最高视听量即“13.64”等数值。Specifically, in the display column of the viewing volume (total value), the display column of the minimum viewing volume is a gray display column, and the display column of the maximum viewing volume is a red display column. Therefore, the color sample of the viewing amount (total value) is displayed in a gradation that changes in the order of gray→purple→blue→green→yellow→orange→red from the left end to the right end. In addition, near the left end of the color sample of the viewing amount (total value), a numerical value such as "0.00", which is the lowest viewing amount of the reference week, is displayed, and near the right end of the color sample of the viewing amount (total value), the highest viewing amount of the reference week is displayed. The amount is a value such as "13.64".
同样，在差值(合计值差)的显示栏中，视听量增加的方向的差值的显示栏为红色显示栏，视听量减少的方向的差值的显示栏为蓝色显示栏。因此，(合计值差)的颜色样本是从左端到右端按照蓝色→绿色→黄色→橙色→红色的顺序变化的渐变显示。此外，在差值(合计值差)的颜色样本的左端附近显示基准周和比较对象周的最低差值即“-3.69”等数值，在差值(合计值差)的颜色样本的右端附近，显示基准周和比较对象周的最高差值即“3.11”等数值。Similarly, in the display column of the difference value (total difference), the display column of the difference value in the direction of increasing viewing amount is a red display column, and the display column of the difference value in the direction of decreasing the viewing amount is a blue display column. Therefore, the color sample of the (total value difference) is displayed in a gradation that changes in the order of blue→green→yellow→orange→red from the left end to the right end. In addition, values such as "-3.69", which is the lowest difference between the reference week and the comparison target week, are displayed near the left end of the color sample of the difference (total value difference), and near the right end of the color sample of the difference (total value difference), Values such as "3.11", which is the highest difference between the reference week and the comparison week, are displayed.
用户通过基于这种视听量(合计值)的颜色样本和差值(合计值差)的颜色样本，观察下述“视听量表”41、“差值表”42和“差值图表”，可以基于各时段的显示栏的颜色等，在感观上识别视听量和差值等。The user can observe the following "audio-visual scale" 41, "difference table" 42, and "difference graph" based on the color sample of the viewing amount (total value) and the color sample of the difference (total value difference). Based on the color and the like of the display field in each time period, the amount of viewing and listening, the difference, and the like are visually recognized.
(视听量表)(audio-visual scale)
接着，图9所示的视听量表41是2020年3月9日(周一)-2020年3月15日(周日)的1周的视听量表。如该图9所示，图像生成部24计算与周一至周日、工作日、周六和周日以及整周对应的上午5点～深夜28点(＝凌晨4点)的每个时段的视听量的平均值，并生成在各时段的显示栏中显示的视听量表41。Next, the viewing scale 41 shown in FIG. 9 is a viewing scale for one week from March 9, 2020 (Mon) to March 15, 2020 (Sun). As shown in this FIG. 9 , the image generation unit 24 calculates viewing and listening for each time period from 5:00 a.m. to 28:00 a.m. (= 4:00 a.m.) corresponding to Monday to Sunday, weekdays, Saturday and Sunday, and the whole week The average value of the amount is generated, and the audiovisual scale 41 displayed in the display column of each time period is generated.
此外，如上所述，图像生成部24将各时段的显示栏的颜色设为与视听量的平均值对应的颜色作为视听量(合计值)的颜色样本。例如，在图9的示例的情况下，由于周日的20点时段的视听量是高视听量“13.64”，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为红色。同样，由于周一的19点时段的视听量为高视听量“13.18”，因此将时段设为红色显示栏。此外，由于周日的21点时段的视听量是稍高的视听量“12.50”，因此图像生成部24将该时段设为橙色显示栏。In addition, as described above, the image generation unit 24 sets the color of the display column for each time period to the color corresponding to the average value of the viewing amount as a color sample of the viewing amount (total value). For example, in the case of the example of FIG. 9 , since the viewing amount in the 20:00 period on Sunday is the high viewing amount “13.64”, the image generation unit 24 turns the display column of this period red. Similarly, since the viewing volume of Monday's 19:00 period is the high viewing volume "13.18", the period is set to a red display column. In addition, since the viewing amount of Sunday's 21:00 period is a slightly high viewing amount "12.50", the image generating unit 24 makes this period an orange display column.
另一方面，由于在周日的27点(凌晨3点)时段的视听量是低视听量“0.00”，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为灰色。此外，由于周四的24点时段的视听量是低视听量“2.35”，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为紫色。此外，由于周六的17点时段的视听量是中等视听量“5.25”，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为绿色。On the other hand, since the viewing amount at 27:00 (3:00 am) on Sunday is the low viewing amount "0.00", the image generating unit 24 turns the display column of this period gray. In addition, since the viewing volume of Thursday's 24:00 period is the low viewing volume "2.35", the image generating unit 24 makes the display column of this period purple. In addition, since the viewing volume of Saturday's 17:00 period is the medium viewing volume "5.25", the image generation unit 24 makes the display column of this period green.
这样，通过将视听量表41中的各时段的显示栏的颜色设为与视听量相对应的颜色，能够使用户直观地识别在一周中各天和时段等的视听量。In this way, by setting the color of the display column for each time slot in the viewing level table 41 to a color corresponding to the viewing volume, the user can intuitively recognize the viewing volume for each day of the week, time slot, and the like.
(差值表)(difference table)
接着，图9所示的差值表42是示出被指定为基准期间的期间(2020年3月9日(周一)至2020年3月15日(周日))的视听量和被指定为比较对象的的期间(2020年3月2日(周一)至2020年3月8日(周日))的视听量的差的表。Next, the difference value table 42 shown in FIG. 9 shows the amount of viewing and listening during the period designated as the reference period (Monday, March 9, 2020 to Sunday, March 15, 2020) and the amount designated as A table showing the difference in viewing volume during the period (Monday, March 2, 2020) to Sunday, March 8, 2020.
图像生成部24基于存储在HDD14中的视听信息，生成被指定为比较对象的2020年3月2日(周一)至2020年3月8日(周日)的期间的视听量表。由此，生成了2020年3月9日(周一)至2020年3月15日(周日)期间的视听量表，以及2020年3月2日(周一)至2020年3月8日(周日)期间的视听量表。并且，图像生成部24生成差值表42，该差值表42通过在一周中各天的各时段内输入2020年3月9日(周一)至2020年3月15日(周日)的期间的视听量表中的一周中各天和各时段的视听量和2020年3月2日(周一)至2020年3月8日(周日)的期间的视听量表中的一周中各天和各时段的视听量之间的视听量差而形成。The image generation unit 24 generates a viewing scale for the period from March 2, 2020 (Monday) to March 8, 2020 (Sunday) designated as a comparison target based on the viewing information stored in the HDD 14 . As a result, the audiovisual scale for the period from March 9, 2020 (Monday) to March 15, 2020 (Sunday), and the period from March 2, 2020 (Monday) to March 8, 2020 (weekly) were generated. day) audio-visual scale. Then, the image generation unit 24 generates a difference table 42 by inputting the period from March 9, 2020 (Monday) to March 15, 2020 (Sunday) in each period of each day of the week. The audiovisual volume for each day of the week and for each time period in the audiovisual scale and for the days of the week and for the period from March 2, 2020 (Mon) to March 8, 2020 (Sunday) It is formed by the difference in the viewing amount between the viewing amounts in each time period.
该差值表42是示出在基准期间(此时为周)的视听量和1周前的期间的视听量之间“存在多少视听量的差”的表。在该差值表42中，显示带有负号的视听量的时段表示视听量低于一周前的时段。此外，在该差值表42中，显示不带负号的视听量的时段表示视听量比一周前增加的时段。The difference table 42 is a table showing "how much difference there is in the viewing amount" between the viewing amount in the reference period (week in this case) and the viewing amount in the period one week ago. In this difference table 42, a period in which the viewing amount with a minus sign is displayed indicates a period in which the viewing amount is lower than a week ago. In addition, in this difference value table 42, a period in which the viewing amount without a minus sign is displayed indicates a period in which the viewing amount is increased from one week ago.
此外，如上所述，作为差值(合计值差)的颜色样本，图像生成部24将各时段的显示栏的颜色设为与视听量差对应的颜色。例如，在图9的示例的情况下，由于周一20点时段的视听量的差值大幅增加至“3.11”，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为红色。同样，由于周一的22点时段的视听量的差值也大幅增加至“3.05”，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为红色。此外，由于周五的21点时段的视听量的差分稍微增加至“1.84”，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为橙色。In addition, as described above, as a color sample of the difference (total difference), the image generation unit 24 sets the color of the display column for each time period to a color corresponding to the difference in the amount of viewing and listening. For example, in the case of the example of FIG. 9 , since the difference in the viewing amount in the Monday 20:00 period greatly increases to “3.11”, the image generation unit 24 makes the display column of the period red. Similarly, since the difference value of the viewing amount of Monday's 22:00 period also greatly increased to "3.05", the image generation unit 24 turns the display column of this period into red. In addition, since the difference of the viewing amount in the blackjack period on Friday slightly increased to "1.84", the image generation unit 24 turns the display column of the period into orange.
另一方面，由于周三的20点时段的视听量的差值是“-3.69”，表示视听量大幅下降，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为蓝色。同样，由于周二的22点时段的视听量的差值是“-2.17”，表示视听量稍微下降，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为淡蓝色。此外，由于周四的22 点时段的视听量的差值是“-0.61”，表示视听量下降，因此图像生成部24将该时段的显示栏设为浅淡蓝色。On the other hand, since the difference in the viewing amount in the 20:00 period on Wednesday is "-3.69", which means that the viewing amount has dropped significantly, the image generation unit 24 makes the display column for this period blue. Similarly, since the difference value of the viewing amount in the 22:00 period on Tuesday is "-2.17", which means that the viewing amount is slightly decreased, the image generating unit 24 makes the display column of this period light blue. In addition, since the difference value of the viewing amount of Thursday's 22:00 period is "-0.61", which means that the viewing amount has decreased, the image generating unit 24 makes the display column of this period light blue.
这样，形成差值表42，在该差值表42中对各时段的显示栏输入了基准期间(在图9的例子中，为2020年3月9日(周一)至2020年3月15日(周日)的期间)和比较对象期间(在图9的例子中，为2020年3月2日(周一)至2020年3月8(周日)的期间)的各时段的视听量之间的差。由此，用户能够一目了然地识别各时段的视听量的差。In this way, the difference table 42 is formed, and the reference period (in the example of FIG. 9 , from March 9, 2020 (Monday) to March 15, 2020 in the example of FIG. 9 is entered in the display field of each time period in the difference table 42 . (Sunday)) and the comparison period (in the example of FIG. 9, the period from March 2, 2020 (Monday) to March 8, 2020 (Sunday)) of the viewing volume of each time slot. poor. Thereby, the user can recognize the difference in the amount of viewing and listening in each time slot at a glance.
进而，将差值表42的各时段的显示栏的颜色设为与视听量的增减对应的颜色。由此使得用户能够直观地识别一周中各天和时段等的视听量。Furthermore, the color of the display column of each time period of the difference value table 42 is set to the color corresponding to the increase or decrease of the viewing amount. This enables the user to intuitively recognize the amount of viewing and listening for each day of the week, time period, and the like.
(差值图表)(Difference chart)
接着，图9所示的差值图表43为棒状图，其中多项(前几项)并排显示上述差值表42所示的视听量与规定的阈值相比差值增加量较多的星期几、时段和增加量，并且多项(后几项)并排显示与规定的阈值相比差值的降低量较多的星期几、时段和降低量。Next, the difference value table 43 shown in FIG. 9 is a bar graph in which multiple items (the first items) are displayed side by side with the days of the week for which the viewing and listening amount shown in the above-mentioned difference value table 42 has increased more than the predetermined threshold value. , period, and increase, and multiple items (later items) display side by side the day of the week, period, and decrease in which the difference has decreased more than the specified threshold.
图像生成部24在生成上述的差值表42时，按照视听量的增加量(正差值)从大到小的顺序，检测例如15项星期几和时段。此外，图像生成部24按照视听量的降低量(负差值)从大到小的顺序，检测例如15项星期几和时段。并且，如图9所示，图像生成部24按照视听量的增加量从大到小的顺序，将15项的星期几、时段以及图形化的增加量在从最上段到下段的方向上排列，生成差值图表43。此外，图像生成部24按照从视听量的降低量从大到小的顺序，将15项目星期几以及图形化的降低量在从最下段到上段的方向排列，以生成差值图表43。由此，生成了差值图表43，其中最上段的15项示出了视听量增加的前15项星期几和时段，且最下段的15项示出了视听量下降的后15项星期几和时段。When generating the above-described difference table 42, the image generation unit 24 detects, for example, 15 items of the day of the week and the time period in descending order of the increase (positive difference) of the viewing amount. In addition, the image generation unit 24 detects, for example, 15 items of the day of the week and the time period in descending order of the amount of decrease in the amount of viewing (negative difference). Then, as shown in FIG. 9 , the image generation unit 24 arranges the 15 items of the day of the week, the time period, and the graphical increase in the direction from the top to the bottom in the descending order of the increase in the viewing amount. A difference graph 43 is generated. In addition, the image generating unit 24 arranges the 15 items of the day of the week and the graphically decreasing amounts in descending order from the largest to the smallest, and generates the difference graph 43 . From this, a difference chart 43 is generated, in which the top 15 items show the first 15 days of the week and time periods in which the viewing volume increases, and the bottom 15 items show the last 15 days and periods in which the viewing volume decreases. time period.
进而，图像生成部24将每个图形的长度设为与视听量的增加量相当的长度，并且附加与视听量的增加量对应的颜色来进行显示。此时，图像生成部24在差值表42上，对该时段的显示栏所附的颜色和在差值图表上该图形所附的颜色为相同的颜色。例如，在差值表42上对时段的显示栏附加红色的情况下，在差值图表上显示与该时段对应的图形时，图像生成部24将其显示为相同红色的图形。同样，在差值表42上对时段的显示栏附加蓝色的情况下，在差值图表上显示与该时段对应的图形时，图像生成部24将其显示为相同蓝色的图形。Furthermore, the image generation unit 24 sets the length of each graph to a length corresponding to the increase in the viewing amount, and displays it by adding a color corresponding to the increasing amount of the viewing amount. At this time, the image generation unit 24 has the same color as the color attached to the display column for the period on the difference table 42 and the color attached to the graph on the difference chart. For example, when red is added to the display column of the time period on the difference value table 42, when a graph corresponding to the time period is displayed on the difference value graph, the image generation unit 24 displays the same red graph. Similarly, when blue is added to the display column of the time period on the difference value table 42, when the graph corresponding to the time period is displayed on the difference value graph, the image generation unit 24 displays the same blue graph.
即，图像生成部24使用与在差值表42中使用的颜色的定义相同的颜色的定义，生成差值图表43。由此，用户例如在基于差值图表43上的颜色来观看差值表42时，能够一目了然地从差值表42中迅速地找到与差值图表43上显示的图表对应的星期几和时段。因此，能够容易且迅速地分析 与显示在差值图表43上的图形对应的时段的视听状态，以及例如前后时段的视听状态。That is, the image generation unit 24 generates the difference value table 43 using the same color definitions as those used in the difference value table 42 . Accordingly, when viewing the difference table 42 based on the color on the difference graph 43, the user can quickly find the day of the week and the time period corresponding to the graph displayed on the difference graph 43 from the difference table 42 at a glance. Therefore, it is possible to easily and quickly analyze the viewing and listening state of the period corresponding to the graph displayed on the difference graph 43, and, for example, the viewing and hearing state of the preceding and following periods.
此外，图9所示的差值图表43以左右的中心为边界，以从该中心向右的图形的长度表示视听量的增加量的大小，并且，以从中心向左的图形的长度表示视听量的降低量的大小。In addition, the difference value graph 43 shown in FIG. 9 has the center of the left and right as the boundary, and the length of the graph from the center to the right indicates the magnitude of the increase in the viewing amount, and the length of the graph to the left from the center indicates the viewing and listening. The size of the amount of reduction.
在图9所例示的差值图表43的情况下，示出了显示视听量的最大增加量的星期几和时段是周一的20点的时段。在差值表42中，周一的20点时段的视听量显示出“3.11”的增加量。因此，图像生成部24将图形的长度设为“3.11”的增加量的长度，并且将图形的颜色设为与差值表42上的颜色相同的红色。In the case of the difference value graph 43 illustrated in FIG. 9 , the day of the week and the period in which the maximum increase in the viewing and listening amount is displayed are the period in which 20:00 on Monday is shown. In the difference table 42, the viewing volume of Monday's 20:00 period shows an increase of "3.11". Therefore, the image generation unit 24 sets the length of the graph to the length of the increment of “3.11”, and sets the color of the graph to red, which is the same color as the color on the difference table 42 .
同样，图9所示的差值图表43的例子示出了显示第4个的视听量的增加量的星期几和时段是周五的21点时段。在差值表42中，周五的21点时段的视听量显示增加了“1.84”。因此图像生成部24将图形的长度设为“1.84”的增加量的长度，并且将该图形的颜色设为与差值表42上的颜色相同的红色。Likewise, the example of the difference value graph 43 shown in FIG. 9 shows that the day of the week and the period on which the increase in the viewing amount of the fourth is displayed is the blackjack period on Friday. In the difference table 42, the viewing volume in the blackjack period on Friday shows an increase of "1.84". Therefore, the image generating unit 24 sets the length of the graph to the length of the increment of “1.84”, and the color of the graph is red, which is the same color as the color on the difference table 42 .
同样，图9所示的差值图表43的例子示出了显示视听量的最小降低量的星期几和时段是周三的20点时段。在差值表42中，周三的20点时段的视听量显示降低了“-3.69”。因此图像生成部24将图形的长度设为“3.69”的降低量的长度，并且将该图形的颜色设为与差值表42上的颜色相同的蓝色。Also, the example of the difference value graph 43 shown in FIG. 9 shows that the day of the week and the period on which the minimum decrease in the viewing and listening amount is displayed is the 20:00 period on Wednesday. In the difference table 42, the viewing volume of Wednesday's 20:00 period shows a decrease of "-3.69". Therefore, the image generation unit 24 sets the length of the graph to the length of the reduction amount of “3.69”, and the color of the graph is the same blue as the color on the difference table 42 .
同样，图9所示的差值图表43的例子示出了视听量的降低量第5的星期几和时段是周三的21点时段。在差值表42中，周三的21点时段的视听量显示降低了“-1.81”。因此，图像生成部24将图形的长度设为“-1.81”的降低量的长度，并且将图形的颜色设为与差值表42上的颜色相同的淡蓝色。Likewise, the example of the difference graph 43 shown in FIG. 9 shows that the day of the week and the period of the fifth reduction in the amount of viewing and listening are Wednesday's 21:00 period. In the difference table 42, the viewing volume of Wednesday's blackjack period shows a decrease of "-1.81". Therefore, the image generation unit 24 sets the length of the graph to the length of the reduction amount of “-1.81”, and sets the color of the graph to light blue, which is the same color as the color on the difference table 42 .
通过显示这种差值图表43，能够使用户一目了然地识别视听量增加的星期几、时段和增加量，以及视听量降低的星期几、时段和降低量。Displaying such a difference graph 43 enables the user to recognize at a glance the day of the week, the time period, and the increase amount when the viewing volume increases, and the day of the week, the time period, and the decrease amount when the viewing volume decreases.
另外，在图5所示流程图的步骤S3中，当判断为未选择比较对象时(步骤S3：否)，处理进入步骤S8，图像生成部24生成如图9所示出的列表画面45中的由参数选择画面40和视听量表41构成的画面。即，当进入步骤S8时，图像生成部24生成从图9所示的列表画面45中除去了差值表42以及差值图表43的画面。由这种参数选择画面40和视听量表41构成的画面通过显示控制部25显示在显示设备3上(步骤S7)。In addition, when it is determined in step S3 of the flowchart shown in FIG. 5 that the comparison object is not selected (step S3: NO), the process proceeds to step S8, and the image generation unit 24 generates the list screen 45 shown in FIG. 9 . is a screen composed of a parameter selection screen 40 and an audiovisual scale 41. That is, when proceeding to step S8, the image generation unit 24 generates a screen in which the difference table 42 and the difference table 43 are removed from the list screen 45 shown in FIG. 9 . The screen composed of the parameter selection screen 40 and the viewing and listening level table 41 is displayed on the display device 3 by the display control unit 25 (step S7).
由此，用户根据视听量表41进行视听量的分析。Thereby, the user analyzes the amount of viewing based on the viewing scale table 41 .
(第1实施方式的效果)(Effect of the first embodiment)
由以上描述可知，第1实施方式的视听量分析系统在显示视听量表41时，将视听量表41中的基准时段的视听量和被指定为比较对象的时段的视听量进行比较，生成并显示在各时段输入了两者的差值的差值表42。通过该差值表42，用户能够一目了然地识别每个时段的视听量的增减，能够高效地分析视听量等。As can be seen from the above description, the viewing quantity analysis system of the first embodiment, when displaying the viewing quantity table 41, compares the viewing quantity in the reference period in the viewing quantity table 41 with the viewing quantity in the period designated as the comparison target, and generates a The difference table 42 in which the difference between the two was input at each time period is displayed. With the difference table 42, the user can recognize the increase or decrease of the viewing volume for each time period at a glance, and can efficiently analyze the viewing volume and the like.
此外，使用与视听量的增减量(差值量)对应的颜色显示各时段的显示栏。由此，能够通过颜色直观地识别各时段的视听量的增减。因此，能够更高效地分析视听量等。In addition, the display column of each time period is displayed in a color corresponding to the increase or decrease amount (difference amount) of the viewing amount. This makes it possible to intuitively recognize the increase or decrease of the amount of viewing and listening in each time slot by color. Therefore, the amount of viewing and the like can be analyzed more efficiently.
此外，第1实施方式的视听量分析系统从这种差值表42中提取视听量的增加量较大的数项的时段，以及视听量的降低量较大的数项的时段。并且，生成与提取出的增加量对应的长度的图形，按照增加量由大到小的顺序排列并与星期几和时段一起显示，并且生成与提取出的降低量对应的长度的图形，生成按照降低量由大到小的顺序排列并与星期几和时段一起显示的差值图表。通过该差值图表43，能够一目了然地识别视听量的增加较大的数项星期几和时段，或者视听量的降低较大的数项星期几和时段。因此，能够更高效地分析视听量等。Furthermore, the viewing amount analysis system according to the first embodiment extracts, from the difference table 42 , the time period of the items with a large increase in the viewing amount, and the time period of the items with a large decrease in the viewing amount. Then, a graph of the length corresponding to the extracted increase is generated, arranged in descending order of the increase and displayed together with the day of the week and the time period, and a graph of the length corresponding to the extracted decrease is generated, and is generated according to the A graph of the difference displayed with the day of the week and the time period in descending order of the reduction. From this difference value graph 43 , it is possible to clearly identify several items of the day of the week and time period with a large increase in the viewing volume, or several items of the day of the week and time period with a large reduction in the viewing volume. Therefore, the amount of viewing and the like can be analyzed more efficiently.
此外，差值图表43各图形的颜色设为与差值表42上的颜色相同的颜色。由此，用户例如在基于差值图表43上的颜色来查看差值表42时，能够一目了然地从差值表42中迅速地找到与差值图表43上显示的图形对应的星期几和时段。因此，能够容易且迅速地分析与显示在差值图表43上的图形对应的时段的视听状态，以及例如前后时段的视听状态，能够高效低分析视听量等。In addition, the color of each graph of the difference value table 43 is set to the same color as the color on the difference value table 42 . Thus, when viewing the difference table 42 based on the color on the difference graph 43, the user can quickly find the day of the week and the time period corresponding to the graph displayed on the difference graph 43 from the difference table 42 at a glance. Therefore, it is possible to easily and quickly analyze the viewing state of the period corresponding to the graph displayed on the difference graph 43, and, for example, the viewing state of the preceding and following periods, and the amount of viewing and the like can be analyzed efficiently.
(第1变形例)(1st modification example)
上述第1实施方式是用“周”指定基准时段和比较对象时段作为视听量的合计单位的例子，但也可以用“季”、“月”或“年”等其他的期间指定基准时段和比较对象时段。The above-described first embodiment is an example in which the reference period and the comparison target period are designated by "week" as the total unit of viewing amount, but the reference period and the comparison period may be designated by other periods such as "quarter", "month", or "year". object period.
图10是用“季”指定基准时段和比较对象时段的例子。在该情况下，图像生成部24生成被指定为基准季的NBV广播电视台的2020年的7月季的视听量表41。此外，图像生成部24生成差值表42，该差值表42示出了与被指定为比较对象的NBV广播电视台的2019年(上一年度)的7月季的视听量的差。进而，图像生成部24根据差值表42生成按照视听量的增减多的顺序图表化的差值图表43。由此，能够以季为单位来比较视听量，能够得到与上述相同的效果。FIG. 10 is an example in which the reference period and the comparison target period are designated by "season". In this case, the image generation unit 24 generates the viewing level table 41 for the July season of 2020 of the NBV broadcasting station designated as the reference season. In addition, the image generation unit 24 generates a difference table 42 showing the difference in viewing amount from the July quarter of 2019 (previous year) of the NBV broadcast station designated as a comparison target. Furthermore, the image generation unit 24 generates, based on the difference table 42 , a difference value table 43 that is graphed in the order in which the amount of viewing and listening increases or decreases. As a result, the viewing volume can be compared on a quarterly basis, and the same effects as described above can be obtained.
(第2变形例)(Second modification example)
此外，在上述第1实施例中，也可以以“周”等期间指定比较对象，但也可以以“地区”、“频道”、“人群(人口统计)”、“视听方法” 指定比较对象。在该情况下，例如生成并显示基准地区的视听量表41和示出了与比较对象地区的视听量之间的差的差值表42等。在任何情况下，都能够得到与上述相同的效果。In addition, in the above-described first embodiment, the comparison target may be specified by a period such as "week", but the comparison target may be specified by "region", "channel", "population (demographic)", and "viewing method". In this case, for example, the viewing level table 41 of the reference area, the difference table 42 showing the difference with the viewing level of the comparison target area, and the like are generated and displayed. In any case, the same effects as described above can be obtained.
[第2实施方式][Second Embodiment]
接着，将描述第2实施方式的视听量分析系统。上述第1实施方式是在视听量表41的一周中各天的每个时段的显示栏中分别输入视听量，并在差值表42的一周中各天的每时段的显示栏中输入视听量的增减值(差值)的例子。Next, the viewing amount analysis system of the second embodiment will be described. In the above-described first embodiment, the viewing amount is entered in the display column of each day of the week in the viewing level table 41 for each time period, and the viewing amount is input in the display column for each time period of each day of the week in the difference table 42. An example of an increase or decrease (difference) of .
另一方面，第2实施方式的视听量分析系统是在视听量表41的各时段的显示栏中输入视听量和差值两者的例子。另外，上述第1实施方式与以下描述的第2实施方式仅在这一点上不同。因此，以下仅描述两者之间的区别，省略重复说明。On the other hand, the viewing amount analysis system of the second embodiment is an example in which both the viewing amount and the difference value are input in the display field of each time slot of the viewing amount table 41 . In addition, the above-described first embodiment is different from the second embodiment described below only in this point. Therefore, only the difference between the two will be described below, and repeated explanations will be omitted.
即，图11是示出第2实施方式中的显示形式的要点的图。该图11是示出上述差值表42的一部分的图。如该图11所示，在第2实施方式的情况下，当图像生成部24计算出一周中各天和各时段内的视听量和指定的时段等内的差值时，例如“10.02/-0.01”、“14.57/0.60”等，针对每个时段的一个显示栏，生成均显示视听量和差值的视听量/差值表。That is, FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the main points of the display format in the second embodiment. FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a part of the difference table 42 described above. As shown in this FIG. 11 , in the case of the second embodiment, when the image generation unit 24 calculates the difference between the viewing amount for each day of the week and each time period and the specified time period, for example, "10.02/-" 0.01", "14.57/0.60", etc., for one display column of each time period, generate an audio-visual amount/difference table showing both the audio-visual amount and the difference value.
此外，图像生成部24对各显示栏附加与视听量或差值对应的颜色来进行显示。另外，图像生成部24也可以对每个显示栏，在视听量的显示区域附加与视听量的值对应的颜色，在差值的显示区域附加与差值对应的颜色进行显示。In addition, the image generation unit 24 displays each display column with a color corresponding to the viewing amount or the difference value. In addition, the image generating unit 24 may add a color corresponding to the value of the viewing amount to the display area of the viewing amount, and add a color corresponding to the difference value to the display area of the difference value, for each display column.
由此，视听量和差值都显示在一个显示栏中，因此能够一次识别视听量和差值两者，无需将视线错开到左右的表格上，能够更高效地进行分析。此外，由于可以不需要差值表42的显示区域，所以除了能够有效地利用整个显示区域之外，还能够与上述第1实施方式相同的效果，如在显示差值表42的区域显示其他对象等。Accordingly, since both the viewing amount and the difference value are displayed in one display column, both the viewing amount and the difference value can be recognized at one time, and analysis can be performed more efficiently without shifting the line of sight to the left and right tables. In addition, since the display area of the difference table 42 is not required, in addition to the effective use of the entire display area, the same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained, such as displaying other objects in the area where the difference table 42 is displayed. Wait.
另外，只要是对一个显示栏均显示视听量和差值的显示形式，也可以是在显示栏的上段显示视听量，在同一显示栏的下段显示差值等其他显示形式。In addition, as long as it is a display format in which the viewing amount and the difference value are displayed in one display column, other display formats such as the viewing amount displayed in the upper stage of the display column and the difference value displayed in the lower stage of the same display column may be used.
(变形例)(Variation)
不对一周中各天和各时段的全部显示栏输入视听量和差值进行显示，而如图12所示，例如也可以输入“上部15项(下部15项(或者可以是上部15项和下部15项等)”等期望的条件，仅将满足该条件的时段显示为表格(过滤处理)。例如，当输入“上部15项”的条件时，图像生成部24在“14.75/0.60”，“11.96/0.94”，“11.38/-0.05”……等上部15项的 输入栏生成并显示图表。由此，可以选择性地显示分析所需的视听量和差值，因此可以基于具有良好可见性的表格来高效地分析视听量。Instead of inputting the audio-visual volume and the difference value in all the display fields of each day of the week and each time period, as shown in FIG. items, etc.)", and display only the time periods that satisfy the conditions as a table (filter processing). For example, when the condition of "top 15 items" is input, the image generation unit 24 selects "14.75/0.60", "11.96" /0.94", "11.38/-0.05", etc. The input fields of the upper 15 items generate and display graphs. As a result, the audio-visual quantities and differences required for analysis can be selectively displayed, so it is possible to Tables to efficiently analyze audiovisual volume.
另外，这种过滤处理可以应用于上述第1实施方式。由此，例如生成并显示仅显示上部15项的视听量表41和仅显示上部15项的差值表42。In addition, such a filtering process can be applied to the above-described first embodiment. Thereby, for example, the audiovisual scale 41 displaying only the top 15 items and the difference table 42 displaying only the top 15 items are generated and displayed.
[第3实施方式][Third Embodiment]
接着，将描述第3实施方式的视听量分析系统。该第3实施方式是在一个差值表(热图：Heat Map)中显示视听量和差值的例子。另外，上述各实施方式与以下描述的第3实施方式仅在这一点上不同。因此，以下仅描述区别，省略重复说明。Next, the viewing amount analysis system of the third embodiment will be described. This third embodiment is an example in which the viewing amount and the difference are displayed in one difference table (heat map: Heat Map). In addition, each of the above-described embodiments is different from the third embodiment described below only in this point. Therefore, only the differences will be described below, and repeated explanations will be omitted.
图13是示出显示该第3实施方式中的视听量和差值的热图的一个例子的图。该图13是示出关东的所有频道中的全地区的用户实时视听的2020年7月季和上一年度的2019年7月季的视听量和各季的视听量的差值的热图。FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of a heat map showing the viewing amount and the difference value in the third embodiment. FIG. 13 is a heat map showing the difference between the viewing volume of the July 2020 quarter and the July 2019 quarter of the previous year and the viewing volume of each season viewed in real time by users in all the Kanto channels.
该热图中，纵轴表示周一至周日中的每天，横轴表示5点至28点(凌晨4点)的时间。图像生成部24生成示出了各频道的各天和时段的视听量和差值的斜率图(Slope Graph)50。各时段区域的低高度位置至高高度位置分别示出了0.00-15.00的视听量。因此，图像生成部24将与2019年7月季的视听量的大小对应的高度位置设为斜率图50的右端部50R，并且将与2020年7月季的视听量的大小对应的高度位置设为斜率图50的左端部50L。由此，能够分别显示各年的7月季的视听量。In this heatmap, the vertical axis represents each day from Monday to Sunday, and the horizontal axis represents the time from 5:00 to 28:00 (4:00 am). The image generating unit 24 generates a slope graph (Slope Graph) 50 showing the viewing amount and the difference value for each day and time period of each channel. The low-altitude position to the high-altitude position of each time period area shows the audio-visual volume of 0.00-15.00, respectively. Therefore, the image generation unit 24 sets the height position corresponding to the magnitude of the viewing volume in the July 2019 quarter as the right end portion 50R of the slope diagram 50, and sets the height position corresponding to the magnitude of the viewing volume for the July 2020 quarter as the slope Left end portion 50L of FIG. 50 . Thereby, the viewing volume of the July quarter of each year can be displayed separately.
另外，图像生成部24显示连接表示各视听量的右端部50R和左端部50L的直线。该直线的斜率表示每年的季的视听量的差值。In addition, the image generation unit 24 displays a straight line connecting the right end 50R and the left end 50L representing each viewing amount. The slope of the straight line represents the difference in viewing volume for each season of the year.
图像生成部24按照每个频道采用不同种类(或者也可以是颜色)的线来生成这种斜率图50。例如，图像生成单元24用直线绘制了NBK广播电视台的斜率图50，用虚线绘制了A电视台的斜率图50。另外，图像生成部24用粗虚线绘制NBV电视广播的斜率图50，用双点划线绘制了LX电视广播的倾斜图50。此外，图像生成部24通过细虚线绘制了TNS广播电台的斜率图50，用粗线绘制了TX广播的斜率图50。The image generation unit 24 generates such a slope map 50 using lines of different types (or colors) for each channel. For example, the image generation unit 24 draws the slope graph 50 of the NBK broadcasting station with straight lines, and the slope graph 50 of the A station with dotted lines. In addition, the image generation unit 24 draws the gradient graph 50 of the NBV television broadcast with a thick broken line, and the gradient graph 50 of the LX television broadcast with a two-dot chain line. In addition, the image generation unit 24 draws the gradient graph 50 of the TNS broadcasting station with a thin dotted line, and the gradient graph 50 of the TX broadcasting with a thick line.
这种采用斜率图50的热图能够得到与上述相同的效果，例如由于视听量和差值都显示在一个显示栏中，因此能够一次识别视听量和差值两者，无需将视线错开到左右的表格上，能够进行高效的分析等，This heat map using the slope map 50 can achieve the same effect as above. For example, since the viewing volume and the difference value are displayed in one display column, both the viewing volume and the difference value can be recognized at one time without shifting the line of sight to the left and right. On the table, can carry out efficient analysis, etc.,
以上实施方式是一个示例，并不意图限制本申请的范围。本申请能够以其他各种方式实施，在不脱离发明的主旨的范围内，能够进行各种省略、置换、变更。The above embodiment is an example and is not intended to limit the scope of the present application. The present application can be implemented in other various forms, and various omissions, substitutions, and changes can be made without departing from the gist of the invention.
例如，在上述实施方式的描述中，用差值表42表示差值信息，但例如也可以罗列差值等，只要能够向用户传递差值信息，就可以以表格以外的形式进行传递。For example, in the description of the above-mentioned embodiment, the difference value table 42 is used to represent the difference value information, but for example, the difference value may be listed.
另外，在显示栏中附加与视听量的差值对应的颜色作为视觉识别特性，但也可以附加例如与视听量的差值对应的字体等作为其他视觉识别特性。In addition, a color corresponding to the difference in viewing amount is added as a visual recognition characteristic in the display column, but for example, a font corresponding to the difference in viewing amount may be added as another visual recognition characteristic.
这些实施方式及其变形包含在本申请的范围及主旨内，并且包含在权利要求所记载的发明及其等同的范围内。These embodiments and modifications thereof are included in the scope and spirit of the present application, and are included in the inventions described in the claims and their equivalents.
